Applications de l’informatique à l’endoscopie digestive

Computer applications to digestive endoscopy

Résumé

«Esculape» est un système de gestion de données établi à l’usage d’unités d’endoscopie digestive travaillant avec un système informatique en réseau ou avec un ordinateur personnel de type MS-DOS.

Ce système permet les activités suivantes: compiler le rapport du diagnostic, des investigations et procédés opératoires des voies digestives supérieures — inférieures — bilio-pancréatiques, y compris la laparoscopie, de stocker les données d’endoscopie et les données cliniques et de les récupérer, de produire automatiquement le rapport, de saisir et de stocker les images en cours d’examen endoscopique et de les traiter simultanément, de fournir l’analyse statistiques des données enregistrées, enfin d’enregistrer et de décoder les observations histologiques relatives aux patients.

L’élaboration du rapport est simplifiée grâce à l’utilisation de fenêtres (windows), de menus à options et de la méthode automatique «POP-UP».

La terminologie se réfère à la 3e édition du système OMED et les données histologiques sont enregistrées selon les codes SNOMED. Dès que toutes les données ont été introduites, un rapport est produit en langage codifié. La production du rapport s’effectue à une vitesse moyenne d’une minute.

Actuellement, 170 centres italiens utilisent le programme et 42 % d’entre-eux l’emploient de façon quotidienne pour toutes leurs activités endoscopiques.

Le programme est relié au gestionnaire de fichier et d’images ES IMAGE, qui utilise un disque dur de type WORM pour l’archivage des résultats d’examens d’endoscopie digitale ou de radiologie.

Summary

Esculapio is a data retrieval system for digestive endoscopy units. It operates in a Network environment or runs on MS-DOS personal computers.

It allows: the report of diagnostic and operative manœuvres of the upper, lower and bilio-pancreatic tracts and laparoscopy method, the storage of endoscopic and clinical data and their retrieval, the capture and storage of the images of the endoscopic exams as well as their simultaneous processing, the statistical analysis of the data, the storage and retrieval of patients’ histological records.

The program front end has been made user-friendly by using windows, menu bars, and pop-up boxes.

Terminology includes the 3rd edition of the OMED system and the histological data are stored with the SNOMED codes.

Once all data are introduced, a report in codified language is produced. Its generation takes one minute on average.

At present in Italy 170 centres use it and 42 % of them make a daily use for all their endoscopic activities.

The program is connected to a filing and images management system: ES IMAGE which archives all digital endoscopic or radiological findings on a WORM disk.
